A few bucks?! That might make it worth my time to respond to edentulous attacks such as yours. I see that you don't write for Medium, otherwise you'd know we don't mkae that much. Certainly not enough to put up with insults from people who don't put their own material out there for the rest of us to scrutinize.

"Doubtful the author even believes this" is about as vague and useless a critique as you could give. It offers me no insight as to how I could improve the post. You don't site any specifics.

If you're looking for scholarly work, you could at least offer a scholarly critique and not just a lazy retort. Here's my voulenteer non-paid for response. Now go write your own amazing scholarly piece so I may learn from your example.
